The V-10 does have power but WHINES to beat the band while climbing, where as a diesel just purrrrrrrs as they climb.
I'm not going to talk torque, ft, pound rpms , fuel economy etc, just the difference in the sound of the two engines. Diesels are so much smoother that gas.
I remember the first time i ever drove a Diesel and I started to climb a hill- the engine never got any louder it just swallowed the hill and never bogged down of the rpm never increased. THAT is the day I understood why people buy diesels. Since then I only buy diesels.
